Title: Improvements in protein compositions and insolubilized protein films
Inventor: HART ROBERT THOMPSON
IPC: D21H19/50
Filed: 1962-09-27
Abstract: Compositions comprise a protein adhesive, particularly casein or soya protein, and ammonium zirconyl carbonate, and in particular comprise an aqueous solution of a protein adhesive containing a sufficient amount of ammonium zirconyl carbonate to render the composition substantially insoluble in water when dry. The composition may also contain an inorganic pigment such as clay, calcium carbonate, blanc fixe, and satin white, and a minor amount of a styrene-butadiene latex, and may also include formic acid to increase the rate of the insolubilization reaction.ALSO:Water-resistant, water insoluble coated paper and coated paperboard may be prepared by applying to the surface to be coated an aqueous dispersion of a protein adhesive, particularly casein or soya protein, and ammonium zirconyl carbonate to form a coating thereon and drying the coating to render it substantially water insoluble.  The coating composition may also contain an inorganic pigment such as clay, calcium carbonate, blanc fixe or satin white.  In the production of coated paper the wet coated paper may be contacted with a heated finishing roll and maintained in contact therewith until it is wholly or partially dry. The coated paper or paperboard may be contacted with a dilute solution of formic acid prior to completion of the insolubilization reaction in order to accelerate this reaction.  In an alternative process paper may be coated first with an aqueous dispersion of protein adhesive, an aqueous solution of ammonium zirconyl carbonate being then applied and the coating dried.

Title: Improvements in or relating to magnetic stores and methods of manufacture thereof
Inventor: SIVYER RAYMOND FRANK
Filed: 1958-11-18
Abstract: A magnetic store for digital storage purposes comprises a support provided with a hardened coating of insulating material on which is deposited magnetic material providing magnetic elements with which conductors are associated.  In one method of manufacture a support which may be brass, copper, stainless steel, mica, glass, ceramic or "Bakelite" (Registered Trade Mark) is dipped in silicone varnish or stoving lacquer and dried either at room temperature or by baking at 300 DEG  C.  The support coated with the insulating material is then mounted in a vacuum chamber and masked, and a coating of 80/20 nickel iron alloy is deposited thereon from a crucible heated by eddy currents to 1500 DEG  C. Windings may be applied to the support as described in Specification 907,090 or they may be applied before the application of the insulating coating, Alternatively instead of masking, unwanted areas of a continuous magnetic film may be removed by etching.  The support and insulating coating may be chosen to have the same coefficient of expansion.  The element may be annealed at 350 DEG  C. for 10 minutes in forming gas (i.e. 90% N2, 10% H2) at 4-5 lb/square inch pressure. Specification 937,742 also is referred to.

A method of assembling a shoe upper includes the steps of laying the parts of the upper on an adhesive coated carrier web with adhesive between the overlapping parts of the upper, pressing the parts together while the adhesive is active and then separating the assembly from the web by cutting along the periphery of the upper. As described a web 10 of lining material is advanced intermittently from a supply 12, e.g. an extruder or a supply roll, and passes through a marking station 24 where the outline A of the upper and each of the components is printed on the web 10. The web then passes through an adhesive applying station 30 which coats the area B within the outline of the upper with adhesive. Succeeding stations 32, 34 and 36 sequentially apply a counter C, box toe D and throat stay E, each of these consisting of a layer of thermoplastic material printed on to the upper in the appropriate region. The web 10 then passes through a heating tunnel 38 to activate the adhesive and operators then place the components I to VI of the upper in position on the web with their edges overlapping, the margins of the upper components. having previously been coated with adhesive. The web then passes through a press 50 to bond the parts together, the adhesive being activated by a high frequency electric field. Finally the assembled upper passes through a cutting station 60 where the completed upper, including a lining 70, is cut from the web 10 and the remainder of the web 10 is wound about a take up roll 16.

A process for hot forging a metal ingot 10, particularly of low ductility alloy, comprises surrounding the ingot or sandwiching it in a metal 11a, 11b of higher ductility, heating the assembly, placing it in a die cavity 14, and then hot forging during which the higher ductility metal is allowed to exude from the die cavity. The ingot may be of metal-chromium-cobalt base alloy with additions of aluminium and titanium, and is used for making turbine blades. It is sandwiched between shaped blocks 11a, 11b of mild steel and tack-welded thereto. The sandwich is heated to 1200‹ C. and placed in the die cavity 14 formed between anvil 13, platen 17 and side rams 15, 16 working in double-acting hydraulic cylinder 18. Pressure is applied to the platen 17 by a screw-operated forging press whereby the sandwich is compressed. The side rams 15, 16 yield to produce apertures 19 through which the mild steel exudes. After forging the mild steel is removed from the forged ingot.

[Also in Division F2] A transmission for driving a movable member of a machine tool such as a milling machine comprises a power-shifted change-speed gear and a main clutch which is disengaged prior to gear shift and re-engaged, with a predetermined delay, on the completion of shift. Gear clusters of the change-speed gear are shifted axially to change gear by hydraulic actuators 185-188 having differential pistons the smaller diameter ends of which are open to a line 226 and the large diameter ends of which are individually connected by lines 227-229 to a control valve 53. Valve 53 has a rotatable valve sleeve 242 having a pin-and-slot connection 259, 262 with a rotatable and axially slidable plunger 246 fast with a manually operated dial 253 which is spring-urged to the right to a position engaging a locking ring 255 and in which plunger 246 opens a supply port 251 so that liquid from a supply line 244 is supplied to the line 226 and to the selected large diameter ends of the actuators. Movement of dial 253 to the left to disengage the locking ring causes plunger 246 to close the inlet port 251 and open an exhaust port, so that no actuators are subjected to pressure so that on rotation of the dial to select a new ratio the intervening ratios are not momentarily engaged.

Line 226 also communicates, via an adjustable needle valve 281, with the engaging chamber of a main clutch 125. The needle valve is subjected to the pressure in the clutch chamber so that the restriction provided increases in size as the clutch pressure increases. The needle valve is by-passed by a passage having a one-way ball valve 298 to give rapid disengagement when the plunger 246 is shifted to the left prior to the selection of a new ratio On the completion of the shift the clutch is reengaged after a delay set by the needle valve 281.
